Overview

Addon Control Panel

Table of Contents

Stop logging out of the game just to change your addons!

ACP adds the "Addons" button to the game's main menu (The one you get when you hit ESC). It allows you to manage your addons in game, with an interface which looks similar to the blizzard addon manager. ACP will help you deal with the "Clutter" that multi-part addons and libraries introduce by displaying your addons in logical arrangements. ACP has many features to make your addon list easy to manage, help you with missing libraries, and provide you with detailed information about each addon.

Slash Commands:

/acp - show and hide the ACP window

/acp addset <set #> - enable an addon set

/acp removeset <set #> - disable an addon set

/acp disableall - disable all addons (except protected and ACP)

/acp default - restore the enabled addons to what was enabled last time the UI was loaded

Icon meaning:

Star: Protected addon - this addon will not be disabled when you choose disable all, also if it is not enabled when you log into the game, it will be re-enabled and you will be prompted to reload the ui.

Dk Grey Open Lock: Addon does not supply compatibility information

Lt Grey Closed Lock: Addon has provided compatibility information

Addon compatibility helps you determine if the addon supports the current version of the game that you are running. You will see further information in the tooltip for the addon, and incompatible/out of date addons will be labeled in the main addon list.

ACP is based on the work of 2 other projects rMCP, which is a version of MCP modified by Rophy, and MCP originally by Saien.

for some reason i can protect EVERY other addon but it will not protect sgi
i can scroll to where the addon is in ANY location but it just will not happen... even when using a macro and in the ticket shown it is in the 12th row so:

/click ACP_AddonListEntry12Security

should work but it does not!!! having sgi in other row numbers and making sure the number in the click command matches also yields a complete feign of ignorance to my furious clicking.

please help as i am at wit's end here.i am sure im not the only one who cant deal with this anymore. and it is the only thing i dislike of the addon.
every other part of it is absolutely a lifesaver

I was noticing how whenever you load into a new zone(Outlands, Northrend, dungeon), hearth, or whatever you get a loading screen that presumably reloads your ui just like /reload ui does. So I thought hey I can save time if I'm about to hearth, I can switch to my Auction addons in ACP, then just hearth and it'll load them right? No it doesn't, probably by design, but I was wondering if there was any way to queue the reload ui to the next time you see a loading screen of this type to save yourself from seeing the loading screen twice, or if this is completely un-doable.

Actually it would be smarter if ACP would instead support profiles and support Reflux, because turning Addons on or off makes no sense without being able to switch their configuration.

I think it make sense to add to "Reflux" the ability to switch profiles on certain events (like entering a instance) and use that to switch the Set of Addons used in ACP too.

I do have for example a "farmProfile" which defines a certain GUI-Layout (like a bigger transparent Minimap) and a certain Set of Addons (no need for BigWigs etc). On entering a PVP-Battle I switch to "pvpProfile" which has a totally different Layout and different Addons. On entering a Instance I switch to "raidHealer", again with different Layout and different Addons.

Right now that is a process that need two /rl when actually only one is need if ACP would support profiles ...

Indeed my suggestion for an automatic load of a set it requires a UI reload. My question was if this could be automated by ACP, perhaps as part of the regular reload screen when the raid instance loads. Even if a second UI reload is required it would be a nice feature as the user is used to waiting a few seconds for a reload at this time and it saves him to manually select the raid set and type in a ui reload command.

I do not suggest this for instances in general, just for raids. Though i suppose the option could be useful to some for instances too.

My thinking is that in raids you are much more likely to want to remove a lot of add-ons (such as pet, social and other non essential add-ons) and add raid specific ones (such as cTRA, PallyPower, TotemGuru, Lootmaster add-ons, DKP add-ons, combat log add-ons, etc.).

I do of course have a raid set, but I often forget to reload. An automatic reload for raids would be a very nice feature.

@highlander1694: wouldn't that require an immediate /rl upon actually loading the instance up? To me, it seems just as easy to make a "raid" set and a "questing" set (or "irrelevant") and just remove (via the "sets" menu) the irrelevant ones from the current set and reload yourself. Maybe its just because I have a lot of addons, and reloading in an instance is iffy at best for me, but if this option is added, I definitely want it to be togglable; loading a certain set upon zoning into an instance would be catastrophic for me personally.
